In a move that was not the least bit unexpected, LSU head coach Les Miles has named Jordan Jefferson as his starting QB.
Miles had kept his QB cards close throughout the offseason, but Jefferson's performance at the end of his true freshman season last year , including being named the game's most outstanding offensive player in their thrashing bowl appearence of Georgia Tech, was just too much for the coach to ignore any longer.
Additionally, the work Jefferson put in this spring and into the summer helped him to be picked over the other two most serious contenders.
It remains to be seen how , or how much, heralded freshman Russell Shepherd will be utilized.
Jarrett Lee, who started 8 games last season, going 4-4; will enter fall camp as Jefferson's backup. The SEC Rocks!
